  • Love this video. I pull out all my eyelashes and eyebrows=/ ive never pulled my scalp hair but ugh my eyebrows are so hidious. You mentioned you got treatment for this? What kind? ive never told anybody i have this disorder. Only my husband knows.

  • @FRANKaguilera22 The treatment i recieved was i found a phys. and a therapist. tricho is triggered by aniexty stress and/or depression to overcome trich you need help diggin down in yourself to see why you do it in the first place. once i found out why they can perscribe a medication for nerves or ocd like i got. but you dont need them for long because you learn coping skills other then pulling. i was put in a hosptital only because i was so severe & gave me an escape for awhile to learn.

  • Wait... How did you get scars and what do they have to do with trich?

  • @TheDogGidget well if you have not seen any of my other videos i also have something called dermatillomania which is in many cases connected with trich. derma is compulsive skin picking. for example is i get a bug bit i out of a horrible habbit pick at it compulsivly leading to large wonds. thanks for asking

see all

  • ive had trich for two hears at pulling hair from my scalp...where do you get treatment at?

  • @TheDogGidget trich is not only hair pulling (eyelashes,eyebrows,etc..) its also picking or scrating your self then u get scars something like that

  • this video is actually inspiring.. thankyou

  • ive always wore eyelinear no matter what even when i pulled my eyelashes out every month and always thought ppl saw and had thoughts of it but ta my surprise no one noticed and i find it strange and displeasing for some reason but when ever i have a nerve-ticking pull out incident i always feel slightly better if i already see some bby lashes coming in and say "give it 2 weeks, youll look better than before" then i feel awesome w/ my lashes then oopsie dasie. deja vu all over again

  • yes the eyeliner works!! your so pretty im jealous (btw all the peeps on youtube who have this they R ALL SO PRETTY NO MATTER!! IF THEY HAVE HAIR OR NOT!!!

  • YA!!!! i suffered from bullying i feel the same way! KEEP ON!!! your amazing!

  • Keep on fighting !! :) <3
